Michael is the founder of Box of Crayons, a learning and development company that helps organizations move from advice-driven to curiosity-led. He's the author of 6 books, the best known of which is The Coaching Habit which has sold close to a million copies and has thousands of 5-star reviews. His latest book The Advice Trap, focuses on what it takes to tame your Advice Monster. We start off the conversation reflecting on his career choices and discussing the differences between academia and industry. He then discusses what it means to be more coach-like in our work - staying curious a little longer, asking good questions, and being slower to jump to advice \u2013 as well as how to recognise our different advice monsters. We finish off with some questions posed by participants on a recent academic leadership development course. \nOverview (times approximate):\n00:28 Preamble \n04:07 Bio\n07:26 Career choices, meaning and impact\n11:41 Academia\n16:45 Staying curious longer\n18:05 Advice challenges\n23:26 Getting practical\n32:22 Advice monsters & their prizes and punishments\n42:51 Responding to questions\n51:32 Wrap up \n53:55 End","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/e6b3f7e4-75e0-4e2b-a697-1211777c31d8/CAL59-MBS-3000x3000.jpeg"}
